LOUIS Holder’s letter in your newspaper on the root cause of domestic violence is a bunch of rubbish. 

Talking about eating salt and certain foods and smoking can lead to this, that and other sickness makes no sense.
If one were to do everything in moderation there would be less sickness.
If one wants to eat red meats by the pounds on a daily basis then one is bound to be sick.
On the issue of “domestic violence” it is the laws that are on the side of most violent men against women.
Louis Holder talks about what women are trying to do in the United States of America, but the writer failed to tell readers who are mostly the law makers – “men or women”?
Take a serious look in all countries and you will see it is all men who making laws, mostly to protect men.
You think those men would make and pass laws that, once proved that a woman was slapped by a man, he must serve no less than 100 years in jail?
Likewise that law must go for women too.
The reason other lawmen must make a pass is that, once a woman calls police for an assault by a man and that man is charged because of proof or marks of violence on her and she goes to court and begs for mercy for her abuser, she must be sentenced to no less than 100 years in jail.
You would be surprised to see how quickly men and women stop beating each other.
